T: Speaking. Anne Rostron, Winchester School of English. Can I help you?

P: Yes, please. This is ..., a student from Moscow. I'd like some information about your summer courses, please.

P: Well, first how long are the courses?

T: In the summer, we offer four-week courses.

P: Yes, where exactly is your school?

T: Well, we're only two minutes away from the beach. Our town is in the centre of the South of England. We have direct public transport from London and airports. It's very easy to visit Stonehenge, Oxford and Bath from here.

P: That sounds good. Mm, how much do the courses cost?

T: They cost from £850, depending on what type of accommodation you choose.

P: What do you do?

T: Nothing special.

P: Let's go to the pictures.

T: That would be wonderful! What shall we see?

P: I think the best thing is to go and see "The Fate of a Man".

T: I've heard about this film. It's based on Mikhail Sholokhov's story of the same name.

P: Yes, Sergei Bondarchuk is the film director, and he also plays the main role. It's a marvelous film about the deeds of the Soviet people during

P: The Diamond Exhibition is housed in the Armoury building inside the Kremlin.

T: Oh, I see.

P: You can invite Laura to go with us. She'll enjoy seeing the collection of diamonds, especially the Imperial Crown with its red spinel and thousands of diamonds.

T: That's a great idea. She's nuts about jewels.

T: Today our environment is in serious danger. Air and water pollution are the problems that threaten human life on Earth.

P: To my mind I must add some decisions about how to solve these problems.

T: Quite right. It's not too late to solve them. We have the time, the money and even the technology to make our planet better and safer.

P: What do you think about the article's title "Let's save our planet"?

London.

video about various adventures and sports.
